Commonwealth Games 2002

Competition Day 8

Scotland completed the shooting competitions at
Bisley with a third medal, in this case for Mike Thomson in the Skeet.
Mike, winner of the CSF Championship last in 1997 & 2001 entered the final
in second place after two rounds of 23 on the second stage of the qualification
round and produced a round of 25 to secure the medal - the only one for the men
in the team! Ian Marsden also qualified for the final, ending up in sixth
place.

In the Women's Prone, Susan Jackson was
unfortunate to miss out on a second medal, losing the Bronze on countback.

Scotland's two silver and one bronze medals are
an improvement on the three bronze medals won in 1998, and have contributed to
an excellent overall performance of 30 medals for the whole Scottish team.

The final medal table for shooting is shown below

Competition Day 6

There were some good Scottish performances today,
although no medals were forthcoming. Colin Will and Stuart Cumming both
produced personal best scores in the Men's Double Trap, in Colin's case just two
points away from making the final. Both men are recent converts from
non-ISSF "Sporting" events, and have been competing in Double Trap for
around six months.

David Lewis, sporting his kilt, produced a
personal best in the Free Pistol, shooting with a Standard Pistol due to a
mechanical breakdown prior to the commencement of the Games.

Competition Day 5

Day 5 was the first full day of the individual
matches, and David Gillies was the first Scot to qualify for a final in the
Trap. Team mate David Marello was involved in a shoot off for the last
place in the final, but was unfortunate not to qualify.

With the short range sections of the fullbore now
competed the Scots are in the middle of the pack, Alice Ogilvie three points
behind the leader with Ian Shaw a further two points behind.

while the Australian Smallbore Rifle competitors haven't appeared at all to
date. For what they are worth, a summary of the results are shown below:
